Board 8 > Superman vs The Elite is a f***ing awesome movie.

(+) Yeah! (+)

If you're at all interested in the plehtora of recent DC animated features over the last few years, this is not one to miss. Best one so far, even better than Under the Red Hood.

It's funny how neither company can get it completely right.

DC makes great animated straight to DVD movies, but blows at live action (baring Batman of course)
Marvel makes amazing live action blockbusters, but fairly meh DVD animated movies.

Well there's still hope for Man of Steel, a lot of good talent on that movie. But, yeah, for the most part you're right.

Expected it when I saw what story it was based on. Good to hear I guessed right about it!

It's not actually out yet, but I already bought it off Amazon so I figured what the hell. I had friends in town that were interested in seeing it that wouldn't be back for a while after it was released.

I honestly went in with some pretty low expectations, unsure about turning a one issue story into a movie and the odd art style (seriously, they go out of their way to make Superman/Batman: Doomsday look like s*** to emulate Michael Turner, but don't even attempt to emulate Doug Mahnke?), but the story was translated excellently, the dialogue and voice acting was top notch, the fights were excellent and the animation quality was the best they've ever had. It's an easy 5/5.

Look forward to buying it once its out.

I have a bunch of DC movies just sitting on my shelf. Haven't watched all of them yet. Just finished All-Star Superman last night, was pretty good.

Under the Redhood is currently my favorite, so this movie must be damn good.

Never missed a DC movie, and I liked the premise. Will get it. As soon as it's stocked here >_>

I wished The New Frontier and Doom was released on DVD though. They only released VCDs versions of it here.

Those 2 are pretty solid. May just want to buy it digitally.

as someone who just finished watching it, I can fully endorse this topic. at the risk of letting recency bias cloud my judgment, I will have to say it's probably my favorite DC Animated Film as of right now.

I believe there's meaning. No, I believe there's nothing.

....that's quite surprising.
man, i wish they'd give their animated films a chance at the box office. surely it's a better option than the amount of money they'll lose with green lantern 2.

"Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel.

Dude, that movie was pretty damn awesome. I checked the wiki page on the source material and it was just a single issue? I figured it'd be a whole story arc...

Great news: checking the wiki page for the movie and i learned that next up for the DCAU is "The Dark Knight Returns". Oh man.

It was an amazing issue, written by one of the best writers in the industry.

Dark Knight Returns is going to be 2 movies. After that (or in between?) is the Flashpoint movie.

The amazing thing is that a lot of people think it sucks because they say Superman defeats his own point by teaching the Elite a lesson. Goes to show how many people fail at understanding basic philosophical tenets!

I'm going to give this a rental at some point.

Should I read "What's So Funny About etc." before I watch it?

You should read it, but you don't have too. Both are excellent, and they're similar enough.

Remember that that's just a single issue comic though, so it's not like it would take long!
